      @Flaze07,
      While not a possessor of vast knowledge.
      They idea about sacrificing is that you gain something in exchange which is the whole point behind a good chess players sacrifice.
      That is why it is called a sacrifice and not losing a piece.
      Losing a piece is your piece getting captured because you blundered.
      A sacrifice is you giving a peace in exchange for something important.
      Usually activity or a mate or whatever is appropriate at the time.

    Whenever I play a game, I always set up my knights facing in opposite directions.

    • @Bodragon
      @Bodragon 4 года назад +3

      ​@@ಭಾರತೀಯ_ನಾಗರಿಕ Well, when I got the promoted knight, which let's face it, is a one in a thousand promotion, which way it would face, (left or right), would be decided on the colour of the square on which the pawn gained promotion to the knight.
      If that square was white, then I would face my new knight to the right.
      If the square was black, then the left.
      I hope this clears up any confusion.

    It's very easy to blunder against the Hippo, and it's a position that pays very little attention to the opponents opening moves. You have to watch for a very small number of attacking ideas, and your opening lines change very little.
    Super easy to play and not so easy to play against, though in theory play it's a position that plays for a draw (not always a bad idea as black).

    @11:10 I thought “why not queen takes pawn” and this is why I’m a 1100 player who blunders a queen every game and these guys are legends.

    I have recently discovered the Hippo and started playing it. I do not recall the years this game was played but it seems to me that both men were getting tired and maybe one was frustrated. It was certainly a fun game to watch and especially the endgame options. I for one would like to see more Hippo games that were successful and even games using the Hedgehog.

    Whoa! We're getting into the realms of so-called fairy chess, the term used for those varieties of chess where the properties of pieces are very different. This was really 'through the looking glass' chess.

    please make video covering the Polugaevsky Variation of the Najdorf Sicilian. It leads to extraordinarily complicated tactical play on which the last word has still not been said, although theory as of 2005 seems to give White the upper hand - wikipedia

    Once I went against a hippo defense he secured his king with everything he can there where no empty lines in between on the other hand i started with Berlin defense getting 2 knights in the game. The game ended in less then 10 moves with 0 pawn or minor pieces loss from both sides and i checkmated that game with just one knight 😂😂😂.

  • @sayednab
    @sayednab 5 лет назад +1

    An interesting move could be when Rashid pushed his pawn for a new queen, instead of capturing knight at a6 he should've captured knight on e5 with his rook and that too with a check. Then simply capture the bishop with a check and then the knight at a6.

  • @carnivalwrestler
    @carnivalwrestler 5 лет назад

    I've seen comments suggesting that at 11:09, black should attempt to fork the white queen by placing his knight on c2, but this would be a mistake, because of Rook to b1. However, I think this would make a barnburner of an ending and would make for a great game. I'm a poor player, but I would love to play white against somebody in this position. In fact, I would enjoy playing a number of variations of this ending. Such a great game, maybe my favorite, thank you for posting and for your expert commentary.

    First a crazy photo challenge as I don't think there are too many people outside who don't know those two guys, then a really crazy game of chess, rather an epic battle, which Rashid lost unfortunately. But it was really very entertaining, indeed!

    Hi Adamgator, I watch your videos regularly, great to see you bring together the classics as well as the latest videos under a single roof... I have a question, though maybe a dumb one, but immediately after white promotes the pawn to queen, why can't the black rook take this promoted queen?
